Atlanta, GA, September 21, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Christian Author
Releases New Book Are You Still Bothered By The Past? That Details The
Story Of Sexual Abuse and Trauma.

They say you're only as sick as your deepest secret and Anne
Anderson, a victim of unimaginable sexual abuse, had plenty of them. The
product of a broken and dysfunctional home, Anderson's childhood
was like something out of a nightmare, leaving her abandoned, molested,
manipulated, drugged, and even prostituted. The closest thing to love
that she experienced was offered with one condition: that she'd
agree to have sex. Never mind that she was only twelve years old. And
never mind that the man was her only father figure - a man who was
supposed to protect and care for her. Unsurprisingly, she was left
damaged and deeply scarred, her pain and suffering extending far beyond
the abuse itself.

For years, she carried around the baggage of her past, feeling
emotionally empty and disconnected. When she became a Christian, she
thought it was an immediate solution, hoping that her newfound faith
would make everything right. But a lifetime of self-sabotaging patterns
weren't so easily broken.

So how does one move on from such trauma? In Are You Still Bothered
by the Past? author Anne Anderson candidly shares her story of abuse, as
well as her personal recovery process. Her inspirational message
encourages other abuse victims, showing that no matter the
circumstances, it is possible to rise above your past and find the hope,
healing, and love you long for.

From The Author

My abuse began when I was just a little girl and continued for
years. Even after the abuse ended, I was still horribly damaged as a
result. For most of my life, I felt alone and different because of my
abuse experience. I couldn't find anyone who would listen, let
alone understand. Eventually, I learned to keep things to myself, but it
made me feel like I didn't fit in. Basically, I learned to live a
lie.
